"It is difficult to swallow such impudence, let alone allow it,"
Sale told Hina commenting on Del Ponte's visit to Zagreb
yesterday.
"She, as one party in the proceedings, is requesting the other party
to withdraw its appeal. In my career in law I have never heard of
such absurdities", said Sale.
He added that was tantamount to a plaintiff asking a lawyer to
withdraw an appeal in some case.
